At Thoughtworks, I contributed to complex digital transformation initiatives, helping organizations bridge technology, business strategy, and delivery execution. My work involved agile transformation, enterprise modernization, stakeholder alignment, and navigating large-scale organizational complexity.

I worked closely with multidisciplinary teams and client leadership to improve delivery effectiveness, enable collaboration across business and technology areas, and support the adoption of modern engineering and agile practices in complex enterprise environments.

My experience at Thoughtworks further strengthened my systems-thinking approach to transformation, combining strategic perspective with hands-on execution in highly dynamic and ambiguous contexts.

As founder of Newstart, I have led technology and transformation initiatives focused on helping organizations navigate complex business and systems challenges. My work has included digital transformation, enterprise modernization, agile delivery, AI strategy, and organizational alignment across diverse industries and enterprise environments.
